Salaam guys, so me and my new blogging buddy the beautiful immy from @immysadventures decided to do a collab summer favrouites post!

Check out her blog it's totally awesome, with some amazing posts honestly!

1) My journal.

This journal is my most recent purchase. It's handmade with super cute flower patterns on it's cover. I have to admit I take more interest in collecting books/journals rather then actually reading/writing them.

2) Daisy anklet.

Recently I have been obsessed with daisies! Well who wouldn't be, they are the cutest things ever. A huge thank you to my beautiful friends for this lovely gift. Although it's an anklet I like to wear is as a bracelet because well I like to be different! :D

4) okay so this one is a bit strange but I have recently been obsessing over round flower henna patterns. Honestly they look super cute and so elegant!

5) Anyone who knows me, knows my obsession with aztec designs. I absolutely love my bag with the lovely aztec patterns. It was love at first sight. Although I do wish it was more stable for a better shape.

6) Lastly how can I forgot my phone! My phone is my all time favorite, but recently I have been loving watching DIY room decor videos. I feel like my room is too plain and needs to be DIY'd up! I honestly found them super helpful as they gave me some really creative ideas.

Last but not the least a huge thank you to our photographer for today. SADIA! aka the bestie

Check out her Instagram henna page for some beautiful henna patterns.

Since this is officially my first ever blog post I thought I should dedicate it to my beautiful sisters who helped me change for the better.

Alhamdulillah Allah blessed me with some truly amazing friends who are like my own sisters. They inspired to become a better muslim and through the guidance of Allah I'm quite far from what I use to be like during my jahaliyah days.

Verily Allah guides whom he wants.

In no way am I indicating that I've become a perfect muslim. I'm far from it but Alhamdulillah with the guidance of Allah and the support from my beautiful sisters I'm striving to become a better muslim every day.

I've done things I'm not proud, all of us have! But I've left all that in the past and honestly that's one of the best things I've ever done.

Because if you think about it, looking back at your mistakes although help you to improve, they can also (in many cases) take you back into the same situations.

I for sure know that the friends I made during my 2 years of college, I will cherish forever inshaAllah. They helped me and advised me through almost all situations and I'm grateful for that. Alhamdulillah.

(Will not name and shame but you all are in my Dua's)

I pray that Allah swt grants them every happiness they deserve and that he gives them the highest of success in this world and the hereafter. May he re-unite us in jannah inshaAllah. Ameen!!

If you guys ever come across this just know that I love you fisabillah ♡ [yes I'm an emotional freak :') ]

The point I was trying to make through this post (don't know if I made it clear enough) was that choose your companians wisely because at the end of the day your companians represent the kind of person you yourself are. So choose those who remind you of Allah swt at every moment and make you want to change for the better.

So since exams are over I am left with nothing productive to do and after a long thought process came to the conclusion of starting my own blog! I've been thinking long and hard about this and thought why not give it a try.

And what better day to start than in the beautiful and blessed month of Ramadan!

Before further ado I'd like to wish all my muslim brothers/sisters Ramadan Mubarak! I pray that this Ramadan you return to your lord with full sincerity and commitment. Ameen!

Keep me in your Dua's inshaAllah.

Back to the blogging side now, so basically I'll try my best to regularly put up new posts (no promises made)

These posts will however be very random. I'll be sharing with you my little world, anything I think is beneficial and well just stuff I find interesting. My posts will most likely include tons of pictures since I'm a big photography fan! :D
